What is Sinusitis?

A sinus is a hollow space in the body. There are many types of sinus, but sinusitis affects the paranasal sinuses, the spaces behind the face that lead to the nasal cavity.

The paranasal sinuses have the same mucous membrane lining as the nose.They produce a slimy secretion called mucus. This keeps the nasal passages moist and traps dirt particles and germs.

Treatment:

In most cases of sinusitis it is recommended to rest and drinking enough water to thin the mucus. Antibiotics are not recommended for most cases

Breathing low-temperature steam such as from a hot shower or gargling can relieve symptoms temporarily. There is tentative evidence for nasal irrigation in acute sinusitis, for example during upper respiratory infections.

What are the symptoms of Sinusitis?

At least two of the four primary signs and symptoms of chronic sinusitis must be present with confirmation of nasal inflammation for a diagnosis of the condition. They are:

• Thick, discolored discharge from the nose or drainage down the back of the throat (postnasal drainage)
• Nasal obstruction or congestion, causing difficulty breathing through your nose
• Pain, tenderness and swelling around your eyes, cheeks, nose or forehead
• Reduced sense of smell and taste in adults or cough in children
• Rough, leathery or scaly patches of skin

Other signs and symptoms can include:

• Ear pain
• Aching in your upper jaw and teeth
• Cough that might worsen at night
• Sore throat
• Bad breath (halitosis)
• Fatigue or irritability
• Nausea

Causes

Common causes of chronic sinusitis include:

• Nasal polyps:- These tissue growths can block the nasal passages or sinuses.
• Deviated nasal septum:- A crooked septum — the wall between the nostrils — may restrict or block sinus passages.
• Other medical conditions:- The complications of cystic fibrosis, gastroesophageal reflux, or HIV and other immune system-related diseases can result in nasal blockage.
• Respiratory tract infections:- Infections in your respiratory tract — most commonly colds — can inflame and thicken your sinus membranes and block mucus drainage. These infections can be viral, bacterial or fungal.
• Allergies such as hay fever:- Inflammation that occurs with allergies can block your sinuses.

Risk factors

You're at increased risk of getting chronic or recurrent sinusitis if you have:

• A nasal passage abnormality, such as a deviated nasal septum or nasal polyps
• Asthma, which is highly connected to chronic sinusitis
• Aspirin sensitivity, that causes respiratory symptoms
• An immune system disorder, such as HIV/AIDS or cystic fibrosis
• Hay fever or another allergic condition, that affects your sinuses
• Regular exposure to pollutants, such as cigarette smoke

Types of Sinusitis

Sinusitis always involves nasal swelling and a build-up of mucus, but there are different types, and they can last for different lengths of time. Different types are:

• Acute Sinusitis: This lasts up to 4 weeks and is the most common type.
• Sub-acute Sinusitis: Symptoms last longer than the normal acute period, for between 4 and 12 weeks.
• Chronic Sinusitis: Symptoms persist, or continually return, after 12 weeks. It may need more invasive treatment, and possibly surgery.

Recovery time depends on the type of Sinusitis.
